Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

Sara: Have you ever heard of the Three Sisters?Carlo: You mean those black singers?Sara: No, I'm talking about mythology.Carlo: Hold on, if you're talking about spooks
and stuff, I don't believe in any of that.Sara: How can you be so sure?Carlo: I don't believe in such things, that's all,
and without any philosophical discussion.Sara: Then what do you believe in?Carlo: In whatever I can see and touch.

Damn straight, Carlo. Anyway a happy 78th birthday to the maestro the the grody gorgeous hallucination Dario Argento today! What with Luca Guadagnino's forthcoming remake of Suspiria on everybody's lips it's a big moment to be re-appreciating the original giallo god - I do wish we were getting a proper retrospective here in New York but I have a feeling that Metrograph has bailed on the one they had planned and then cancelled due to Dario's inability to make the trip.

"It's just comforting to read how meticulous and well thought-out Guadagnino's work on Suspiria has been, that someone with his artistry is doing this (and not some hacky Platinum Dunes type asshole). I'm so excited to see this!!."

--- The Suspiria remake is out around Halloween and reader Robert Kirby is down with Luca's listing of Rainer Werner Fassbinder and the painter Balthus as a couple of his influences, visually speaking. As are we! Excited too!
